4 pounds brisket of beef
Brown meat in a Dutch oven. If meat is very lean, use a little fat for browning.
Add sliced onion, green pepper and celery; sauté until tender. Add tomato and mushroom sauce, salt and pepper. Cover and simmer 2-1/2 to 3 hours or until tender.
Cut potatoes in half and add during last half-hour of cooking. If desired, this may be roasted in a moderate oven (350°F) for the same length of time.

My husband has been making a variation of it for years (no pepper or celery, more onions, some ketchup). We always use deckle brisket and it comes out very tender. We also just use a roasting pan covered in heavy foil.
